Know what you mean - Mr Huxley decided to go pheasant bashing on the way to Prodrive test track! Broke the protecter but saved the headlamp. The scoob behind caught the feathers!!!

Hi Mr M - Was it one of the clips that broke? They're seriously flimsy....

Mr.M,

i bought a pair of fog-lamp protectors (probably the same bit of kit as yours) and took great care in reading and following the instructions to the letter. Unfortunately the part marked "drivers side" was actually for the passenger (and vice versa).

Thus i too managed to break off one of the clips (although the remaining two do hold it is place).

I wasn't a happy bunny, but sometimes it is just not worth making a fuss.

Yup - about £24. I put mine on the sides that were marked on the protectors.

This probably means that I have them on the worng way round, but they seem OK to me. I figured that, as they are made in Australia, and they drive on the same side as us, the markings would be correct......
